REQFIL server.

 REQFIL server allows to send back the ascii file requested to the originator
of the message.

 The message sent to REQFIL has a well defined syntax. The standard command
line of message is utilized. The message should be of the private type and
addressed to the BBS which we want to ask.

 SP REQFIL @ bbs-destination

 The title of the message contains two information, the name of the
requested file and the @ sign followed by the return BBS, that is to say
yours. The return message will be addressed to the originator of the request
to the return bbs.

 filename @ bbs-return

 The text of the message is not necessary, its content will not be taken into
account by the service.

 Example :

 F6FBB BBS >
 SP REQFIL @ F6ABJ.FRA.EU
 Title of message :
 DEMOS\ESSAI.TXT @ F6FBB.FMLR.FRA.EU
 Text of message :
 /EX

 This example makes the assumption that DEMO is a sub-directory of the USERS
directory.

 The answer of the remote mailbox will be of the form :

 SP F6FBB @ F6FBB.FMLR.FRA.EU < F6ABJ
 Req File: DEMOS/ESSAI.TXT
 Contents of ESSAI.TXT file
 ...
 /EX
